Otherworldly Skeleton

Chapter 7 Death Mission

Stepping on the slippery green grass, Lu Yan felt his feet sore and cracking. The originally soft blades of grass became sharp like a saw. Every step he took was a painful torture. He began to miss those Black rot, that is the favorite land of skeletons.

There are a total of 54 ashes behind, and the others have fallen apart during the three-day trek. Lu Yan was surprised to have this number, because ashes are very fragile in his memory. He didn't know if he would be able to persist until now if he hadn't evolved into a red bone.

As the temperature gradually increased, the bones decided to take a rest. The ashes immediately collapsed to the ground like a pile of broken bones, while the red bones insisted on standing, waiting for the bones to assign tasks.

Twenty red bones were sent to the outskirts of the temporary camp to guard. There is no shortage of human tribes who are good at fighting in this Varma grassland, and the combat power of this skeleton team is actually equivalent to more than [-] strong people. If the human soldiers are entangled by nomadic cavalry, they will probably be wiped out in a short time.

The missions Lu Yan received a few days ago were all sentinels, but today he was not assigned to do the sentries, and he had more important tasks assigned to him.

"Pick a few ashes and walk ten kilometers west to see if there are any human gathering places." Karen Val's order was passed down. To Lu Yan's surprise, this was a very difficult task, and it could even be said It's a death mission.

Redbone can walk up to [-] kilometers a night, and it is difficult to travel more than [-] kilometers during the day when the sun is shining. Now Karen Val actually wants him to go ten kilometers to explore the road during the day, which is [-] kilometers round trip. But it's the road to death. Some red bones who performed this task died outside two days ago.

Lu Yan didn't say anything. He picked up some of the strongest ashes and walked westward. Disobeying the orders of the war bones was tantamount to death. He didn't think it was possible for him to defeat Karen Val.

"Enduring the scorching sun is the first lesson to become a qualified fighter. I have given you a three-day buffer period. If you want to come back alive, don't let me down."

Karen Val's voice came into his mind, Lu Yan felt a heat in his heart, nodded and rushed into the vast grassland.

In fact, skeletons also need water very much. This common sense is what he learned during the three-day march. It seemed like he was working hard, but he knew that it was this trick that kept his Ashes team with the lowest death rate.

Chewing grass leaves can reduce the death rate of gray bones. It is such a simple truth. I don’t know why other red bones are unwilling to learn, and even most of the battle bones are too lazy to order their subordinates to do so. Lu Yan feels that he is different from other skeletons. It's different, and he feels that his immediate boss, Karen Val, is also a bit special, but he can't tell what the difference is.

Although there are life-saving tricks, they can't withstand the rapid march under the scorching sun. When the sun rises above his head, Lu Yan feels that he may fall down at any time, and half of the ashes behind him have fallen down, only three A half-dead hangs behind him.

Just when Lu Yan thought he was about to die, the goddess of luck favored him again, and a miniature lake appeared in front of him, or a small pool.

Roaring with joy, the four skeletons jumped into the pool less than ten meters in diameter. The gentle water element did not have the habit of racial discrimination. The delicate water flow gently washed the bodies of Lu Yan and the three ashes, and took them away. The dust and heat above also moisten the cracked joints between the bones.

Lu Yan soaked the three ashes in the pool for half an hour before getting up. When he left the pool, he cleverly smoothed the sharp skeleton footprints on the edge of the pool. This is what he learned from a war bone. skills.

Lu Yan, who was nourished, walked westward with confidence. This unexpected joy made him see the hope of victory. Thinking of Mr. Zhan Gu's words "come back alive, don't let me down", he immediately felt a little excited, almost There was an interest in humming a little tune, but at this moment, the real crisis finally appeared.

Two small dots appeared on the green grass line in the sky, and Lu Yan could vaguely see that they were two humans riding horses.

Human warrior?

From the perspective of skeletons, humans riding horses are generally warriors, and only skeletons at the level of battle bones are capable of fighting warriors. Even though Lu Yan is already a strong red bone, and has even killed a magician, he is still not The opponent of the prepared fighter.

run away?

Desperately?

Several plans flashed through Lu Yan's mind, but obviously none of them would work. He could almost foresee that he would immediately turn into a pile of waste bones scattered in the wilderness.

The speed of the prairie horse is very fast, the sound of the hooves of the horse and the cries of the rider can be faintly heard along the wind. Lu Yan has little time to think, and the rider will find their four skeletons at any time. He feels that life is being lost from his hands little by little. , but he has not yet found a way to deal with it. In panic, he subconsciously retreated step by step.

The three ashes also found the uninvited guest in the distance, and they let out a deep roar from their throats. Their bloodthirsty instinct made them not know what it means to be afraid. If Lu Yan hadn't ordered them not to move, they would have rushed forward.

Is this the end?Lu Yan took another step back, this time one of his feet stepped into the wet mud beside the pool, a small frog escaped from the gap between the bones of his foot, jumping several times in panic, Jumped into the pool.

Ah, Lu Yan had a flash of inspiration.

"Jump into the pool!" With a ferocious growl, he commanded the ashes who couldn't restrain their impulse, and drove them all into the pool. Then he simply wiped away the traces on the edge of the pool, Then jumped into the water.

The water pool more than four meters deep is enough for four skeletons to hide in it.

The ashes are still about to move, and the bloodthirsty instinct makes these stupid ashes want to get up. Lu Yan knows very well that when the ashes get up, his own short life will come to an end, so He could only press them hard to the bottom of the pool, and at the same time lowered his voice and kept ordering: "Don't move! No one is allowed to move!"

"Knock! Knock! Knock!" The sound of the horse's hooves was getting closer and slower, and Lu Yan felt a chill in his heart. Could it be that the other party had discovered him?

The so-called Wangshan running dead horse, Lu Yan's eyesight is obviously not bad. When the two horses finally stopped by the pool, more than ten minutes have passed, and a lot of muddy soil in the water has fallen. From the outside, it seems that the water quality is not bad. Not bad, but it blocked the bodies of Lu Yan and other four skeletons just right.

Hearing the sound of splashing water above his head, Lu Yan knew that the rider was replenishing water for himself and the horse. He boldly looked up and saw that besides the two fat mouths of the round white pool, there was another With a big face full of beards, the thick lips that are almost as thick as the lips of a horse are swallowing the water. A ferocious red scar twists around the lip, showing the bravery of the owner of this lip.

Definitely a strong human warrior, Lu Yan couldn't help but secretly rejoiced that the skeleton didn't need to breathe, otherwise it would be fatal today.

"Uncle Zama, why is the water so dirty?" Another young voice came from the top of his head, Lu Yan measured that the owner of this voice should not be more than 16 years old.

"Haha" Scarface suddenly lifted his head away from the pool: "Nephew Bam, although this pool is small and somewhat unclean, it is the best sweet pool within a hundred miles. There are a lot of them, but very few to drink, you have to keep in mind the location of every water source, no one knows when they will save your life.”

Lu Yan secretly recalled that during the march a few days ago, the skeletons jumped into almost every puddle or lake they encountered, but they had never heard of any water that could not be drunk. It seems that humans and skeletons are very concerned about water quality The requirements are different.

"Uncle Zama, why can't we drink so much water? Isn't the water on the grasslands all gifts from God Changtian?"

The question raised by the young man was also the question in Lu Yan's heart, so Lu Yan also waited carefully for Scarface's answer, but he didn't notice that a gray bone slowly slipped out from under his feet.

"Huh!" Zama's voice revealed uncontrollable anger: "Of course the water on the grassland is given by the God of Changtian. There were no poisonous springs and ponds in the past, but since the water came from the west 30 years ago After the Black Continent, the evil skeleton army began to harass our beautiful grassland, and these damn beasts poisoned every water source they encountered..."

Lu Yan was confused when he heard this. During his march these days, he had never seen a skeleton poisoning a water source. The favorite thing for skeletons to do was just jump into the water to cool off the heat. Could it be... Lu Yan was thinking Here, he suddenly felt a surge of water around him, and before he could react, a strong ashes had already rushed out by kicking off the wall of the pool.

"Not good!" Lu Yan was startled, but it was too late, the ashes almost rushed out of the water.

Lu Yan had to make a decision quickly, whether to give up the ashes and continue lurking, or to rush out and fight the two humans?

"Ah, Uncle Zama, bone... bone!"

"It's a damned skeleton, there is an ambush in the water!" Zama's roar reminded Lu Yan that human beings are cunning. When a gray skeleton appeared at the bottom of the pool, wouldn't humans search the pool carefully? At that time, a strong wooden stick could smash Lu Yan and his two men into pieces. His only way out was to take the opportunity to jump out and give the two humans a sudden blow.

"Attack!" Lu Yan roared and rushed out of the water, but what greeted him was a slap the size of a cattail fan.

Zama first kicked away the ashes of No.1 crawling out, and then slapped Lu Yan six meters away from the pool. Then the fate of the latter two ashes was similar. It was lifted out like a chicken, and then slammed on the ground fiercely, with broken bones flying around, almost completely falling apart.

At this time, Lu Yan saw the whole picture of Zama. It was a big man with a height of nearly two meters. He was wearing cowhide shorts. His naked upper body had muscles as strong as rocks. The numerous scars perfectly interpreted his force. Lu Yan Guessing in frustration, even if his boss Karen Val is here, he may not necessarily be Zama's opponent.

Behind Zama, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy took off the scimitar from the horse and brought it over. With the sharp scimitar in his hand, Zama's tall body looked even more majestic.

Lu Yannai stood up from the ground, and the three ashes were miraculously still alive. They staggered and crawled to Lu Yan's side, preparing to make the final death charge with him.

"It's just gray and red skeletons?" Zama's nervous expression became relieved, and he even smiled: "Nephew Bam, although you have seen skeletons, I'm afraid you don't know the classification. Listen carefully, gray The number of skeletons is the largest, but they are like tiny ants, which can be trampled to death with one foot. The number of red skeletons is smaller and harder, but they are at most locusts that are a little bigger than ants. The feet are dead, when you encounter such low-level beasts on the grassland, don't rush to run away, because you can easily crush them!"

The boy nodded vigorously, but when he saw Lu Yan's dark red skull, he still couldn't hide the nervousness on his face.

"You entangle him, let me give him a fatal blow!" Lu Yan gave the order to the three ashes in front of Zama. He didn't hide it, and he didn't know how to hide it, or he felt that there was such a disparity. In front of the power of his body, any cover up is useless, what he is doing now is just one last fight before being crushed.

"Ahh!" Lu Yan roared and rushed towards Zama.

Zama sneered, and raised the scimitar in his hand. He wanted to split the arrogant red skull with one knife. As for the other three gray skulls, he didn't pay attention to them at all. The power of the gray skulls was about the same as that of a ten-year-old child. It is simply impossible to limit one's own movements.

But...a sudden severe abdominal pain made Zama tremble all over, and his strength disappeared in an instant.

"Ah!" With a scream, the blood on Zama's face instantly faded, and he staggered back two steps.

The three ashes rushed forward and hugged Zama, the seemingly hard muscles were actually very strong, and the tall Zama was easily thrown to the ground by them.

Lu Yan's mind was blank, and he didn't have time to think about why Zama suddenly became strong and capable. He jumped high above Zama, and pressed the palm of his right hand against Zama's neck...

"Pfft!" The sharp bone needle pierced Zama's neck.
